Forging ahead into 2009, with the hopes of setting the standard for independent music publishing companies like this one. One that prides itself on building their own catalog and retaining all their rights to their songs so they can offer these songs for digital downloads from their site, without having to give away their rights. "We may not make a million bucks, but we have never written or played music for the money, that is just a perk!" Amanda says.

Together Rick and Amanda (with their combined talent and years in the music business) are putting more than 50 experience into AmandaRick Music. Currently they are forming a band--the name will remain unknown until they debut. "We stay excited about the future of our music, that is our inspiration!" Amanda says.
